Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and mix well, ensuring each piece is coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or up to overnight) to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, leaving a small space between each piece.
  • Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred on the outside.
  • Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serve the Shish taouk with your choice of sides, such as pita bread, rice, or a fresh salad.
